As we adjust to life at home, here is the complete photo essay on Julia's journey home, organized into more manageable albums so you can pick the phase or topic that interests you.
Albums in order of interest (as they relate to Miss Julia of course): The names are fairly self explanatory
http://picasaweb.google.com/tomljmj/JuliaAtHome# - This one will continue to grow over the next few months as we settle into life at home
http://picasaweb.google.com/tomljmj/JuliaComingHome# - The princess on the road towards home

There will be more updates and captioning as we get time, but wanted you to have access to these.
Thanks for posting these albums- so nice to see photos. It's especially touching to see how happy Julia is at home, with her brothers and sisters. Truly a new life for this princess! :)
